Water and Emergency Preparedness
It's natural -- disasters happen. But having
a personal emergency plan and
adequate supplies can
boost your level of comfort when the
unexpected occurs, whether it's a winter or
ice storm, tornado, power outage or other
crisis. When putting together home emergency
supplies, experts recommend storing one
gallon of bottled water per person per day
and enough canned or shelf-stable food for
up to a week.
• Storing one-gallon or
two-and-a-half-gallon size bottles for
easy handling.
You may want to store bottles of water in
different locations for easy
access.
• Put supplies in a large container such as
a plastic trash can with a lid and
store it in a cool, dark
place away from any chemicals or solvents.
• Label each food and water item with date
of purchase or note the
expiration date or "use
by" date.
• For maximum freshness, rotate food and
bottled water every six months. |
